Will these work with a Zoom h4n? The Zoom has phantom power, but no mic. power. If power is needed to operate the mics, what module do I need to get?

The H4N phantom power only works when there are XLR ins, so the workaround I use is +24V phantom power in the H4N settings, feeding the mics into a Y-splitter to 1/4" stereo, and I feed those to impedance adapters, female 1/4" to the male XLR's (x2). I bought these products to get the job done, http://www.amazon.com/Hosa-YMP-434-Female-8-Inch-Breakout/dp/B0010D0HO0/ and 2x http://www.amazon.com/Planet-Waves-Female-Balanced-Adapter/dp/B0002E53O2/ And no I don't endorse any of these.

If you buy a mic, it with have phantom power and be at 600 ohms for it to work correctly with the Cannon Vixia hf r500. I purchased a lavalier mic with the correct specs but still not compatible as it only gives me mono sound although the input is stereo....so its trial and error with your choices....but your error will be much cheaper than the $250 wireless mic that cannon offere

I just looked up the specs on this mic and on the Mackie unit (as can anyone). The Mackie device you specified can provide up to 10 mA per mic for phantom powering. This mic draws only 8 mA, so per each manufacturer's specs, you should be good.

I don't think you can mix that on the Zoom H2n itself, but this is easily done on a PC using software like Audacity or Audition -- I think the H4n might be able to do this on the Zoom itself as it has a basic mixer

I don't think phantom power will hurt this mic. I believe you do need a phantom power for this mic when you use the XLR connector. When you use the USB connector, you don't need phantom power. However, based on my experience, the USB connector on this mic performs terribly.

i have no idea whats a zoom H4n audio recorder. but if it has the normal camera tripod mount it should work just fine with this ultrapod

I have not tested the Nady phantom power supplys. I have used powered mics and a wireless box on it and I beleive that any mic or device that can be plugged into this cable will work. It works just like pluging a mic into an amp. I was also suprised by the sound quality when I plugged it into my laptop and my desktop.

Yes with a nice cardiod mic, will work great. You should check out proaudiodvds.com with David Wills, he has a great series on how to use the Zoom H4N!

I know you've tried 2 or 3 cords by now so here's how I record using my MXL 770. I use an ART tube pre amp, but you have to turn off the phantom pwr or If you have another external phantom pwr unit try that. I do know that the controls on H4n Zoom can be tricky we use one to record our rehearsals so double check your settings. Hope this helps.

The mic has a male XLR connector (mic level output). It does not need a battery or phantom power. You will need an adapter to go from XLR to 1/8" mini, but it should work fine.

This headset has a 4 pin mini xlr connector. It also requires phantom power which is provided by the belt pack. I don't think the Zoom has that type of connector for the external input.

Hi Jayden, As far as I know it does not require phantom power. I have used it without it, but I have also used it with on an audio interface. I just did my show with the yeti pro this evening. You can listen to it if you go to Blog Talk Radio Alpha Centauri & Beyond.

I use this with a TASCAM DR DR-60D and I do need to enable plug-in power in the menu or I get nothing so Marna H is right she may have a problem. There is an explanation on B&H's shotgun mic section here http://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/audio/buying-guides/shotgun-microphones. There are battery modules/boxes that will provide power, but the only one I could see on Amazon ( by Sound Professional) seemed very expensive for something that should be quite simple. My only suggestion is triple check your menus for a plug-in power option - good luck!

I'm slightly confused as to what you're asking. I'm not familiar with the Zoom H6 Recorder, but I'm assuming you're using this for podcasting based on you saying "discussion." The way this device works is that you connect it into the headphone port of the recording device. Any headphones connected to the Microamp will hear everything you're recording.

You have what we call a 48v Phantom Power Mic Which means... Firat of all ots a great mic and second, you need serious power puahing the mic to it's potential and that can only be achieved with an 'Audio Interface.' The a sort of mic you have is to good and powerful to just be powered with a simple cable such as this. I ran into the same problem. I learnt the hard way as well.
